Don't want super long threads and I don't want to necrophilize the other classics so...

Quote from JParanee (hope you don't mind) "... I have really not seen a just fighter thread in awhile maybe I am wrong but I know there are some great fighters out there and I would love to see them all together. I have no problem with fighters getting lumped in with bowie's but we all know there is a difference between a pure fighter and a fighting bowie. I would say 8 1/2 to 9 is about max [...] I know y'all have um so let's see what ya got.. Oh and ways of carry meaning sheaths are really important so if ya can include them to..."
 
Here you go. Definitely not a bowie. Definitely a fighting knife:

This is my personal "fighter" although it makes a boss garden machete too. It is also the only knife that I have ever made that I kept. Sort of a Kopis via southeast asia.

Sorry for the dark pics.

Oh, sorry I hadn't hear that. But isn't it more site storage friendly to add new photos to a existing long thread then to start a new one and duplicate the same 17 pages of photos from the old thread? I imagine we are going to see the same fighters posted again.

No biggie, only brought this up because of the speed/lockup issues.

Kevin,

The last thread was very popular and probably this one will be also.

Why will we see the same fighters posted again?

I posted fighters on the other thread, but I posted different fighters on this one.

Hello Guys. I really enjoyed this post. Here some of my works which I consider essentially fighting knives. Hugs,

I believe that Kwaikin's are more utility knives but I am sure Phill and RJ where not thinking utility knives when they made these

This fantastic Knight Wilson Combat to me screams fighter

Althought this is above the OP's blade restrictions this El Salvador Tanto from Hartsfield was made with one purpose

I'm a bit (way) out of my league here, but here is a fighter I made a while back. It is the only knife I have made that I would call a fighter though I am working on another right now.
